What's more, in this era of lack of hype, Lin Fengjin is famous for doing this, but it has also greatly improved the reputation of the teacher, which can be intuitively reflected from the data:

Before Lin Fengjin's apprenticeship, although Wang Yangming and Lu Jiuyuan were famous, they were also at the same level as Haigongzi, Zhou Dunyi, Zheng Xuan, and Cheng Hao of Bailu Academy, but since Lin Fengjin's apprenticeship, the prestige and influence of these two people have become even grander, and they are already obviously above these people.

This is not empty words, but there is a very intuitive data to reflect, what data, of course, is the number of scholars who come to the two people every year.

In the past, Hai Gongzi, Zhou Dunyi, Zheng Xuan, Wang Yangming, Lu Jiuyuan, Cheng Hao of Bailu Academy, Zhang Zai of Hengqu Academy, and so on were all almost the same level, all of them were well-known Confucians in the world, and the scholars who came to study were about 5,000 to 9,000 people.

The highest record was set by Cheng Hao, more than 9,100 people. Because when you come to study, you will hand over a handscroll, which indicates your place of origin, resume, and name, so it is very easy to count.

However, since the news of Lin Fengjin's apprenticeship came out, last year, Wang and Lu received more than 10,000 handscrolls, Lu Jiuyuan received more than 12,000 handscrolls, and Wang Yangming received more than 13,000 handscrolls!

As a result, the influence of the two people, who suddenly became kings and Lu, must have risen to a higher level, and they have already left the rest of the people behind and began to transform into the grandmasters and leaders of Confucianism!

No one in the world knows you!

The rest of Hongru didn't say anything, but they must have minded very much in their hearts. As the saying goes, literati are light. A good name for the literati is a must. Who created the so-called "indifferent fame and fortune"? That was the first mention in Zhuge Liang's "Book of Commandments":

The trip of a husband and a gentleman is to cultivate oneself quietly and to cultivate virtue through frugality. There is no ambition without indifference, and there is no far-reaching ambition without tranquility. The husband must learn quietly, only then must learn, non-learning can not be broad, non-ambition can not learn.

And under what circumstances did Zhuge Liang write these remarks? When he was about to die, he wrote a letter to his seven-year-old son Zhuge Zhan. The prestige can be said to be known to everyone at home and abroad, and the weight of power can be said to have almost completely overturned Liu Chan!

At this time, what is "thin" and "quiet", Mr. Zhuge is really suspected of standing and talking without backache. If his old man is really light and quiet, then Liu Bei don't say that three visits to the thatched house, thirty visits to the thatched house, and three hundred to the thatched house are useless The last thing to mention is that Mr. Kong Ming was fifty-three years old when he died, and his only son Zhuge Zhan was only seven years old (the eldest son Zhuge Qiao was the one who raised his brother), this. Ahem, cough, it's also quite fierce.

Therefore, the vast majority of literati must put "thinness" and "tranquility" on their lips, but subconsciously a good name is a must. On the surface, he must be very calm, waving his hand and saying: The autumn wind is passing through the ears. But behind the scenes, I will definitely light a candle and analyze it carefully, and after analyzing it, I will understand that it turns out that these two people have become famous recently. It's not because of any famous articles or academic achievements, but because they have accepted a sensible and wealthy (this is the most fundamental) disciple to build momentum for them!

So. Lin Fengjin is in the great Confucian, Hongru must be famous, he goes in and out of classes in Donglin Academy, and he will inevitably be often called by the teachers to see, and some of the Confucianism or Hongru who do things more directly will even ask him if he has any younger brothers of appropriate age

Okay, the topic is far away, so Lin Fengjin is well-informed, he has seen many famous Confucians, but he has never seen the mountain chief of Donglin Academy, and he is indeed a little curious to say, how to be a strong and explosive character, so that these world-famous Confucians, Hongru, and even Yin Xian can gather together at that time?

He asked many people, and the only definite news he got was that the mountain chief had been in retreat for decades, and rarely came forward, and his usual affairs were handled by the great Confucians and Hongrus.

Today, Lin Fengjin couldn't help but be a little excited when he thought that he was about to face this mysterious mountain chief, and following the footsteps of Hai Gongzi, Lin Fengjin passed by the statue of Mencius, and then continued to walk inside, and then entered the inner forbidden area of the academy.

And as soon as he entered the inner forbidden area, Lin Fengjin felt warm all over his body, as if he was soaked in a hot spring, which was very comfortable. What's more, his mind is extraordinarily clear, and some of the problems that usually feel very difficult and obscure are suddenly penetrated in an instant, if he writes here, he will really reach a kind of "literary thinking is like a spring, and the pen is like a god" realm.

"What is this?" asked Lin Fengjin in surprise.

Hai Gongzi said with a smile:

"This is the inner area covered by the statue of Mencius, doesn't it feel different?"

Of course, Lin Feng's heart is different, at most, the outside is just a pure heart and concentrating, but the effect inside is at least ten times that of the outside!

This internal forbidden area sounds very strict, but in fact, in Lin Fengjin's eyes, there is a small hill with beautiful mountains and rivers, and there are scattered large and small houses and courtyards around it. Hai Gongzi took Lin Fengjin and came to the front of a winding mountain road.

This mountain road looks the same as other mountain roads, it is piled up with a ladder of bluestone in the shape of a stool, the vicinity of the mountain road is full of green trees, and there is a gurgling clear stream flowing down next to it, it can be said that it is green mountains and green waters, so it is not eye-catching.

Hai Gongzi, the little old man with crane hair and childish face, brought Lin Fengjin here, and said with a smile:

"I'll walk here with you, all the way to the front, and at the end is the retreat of the mountain chief in seclusion, if you can go there, it will naturally have your benefits. ”

Saying that, Hai Gongzi actually looked like a child, jumped and walked away, and actually hummed the shepherd boy's little song.

Lin Fengjin stood in place, but he was not in a hurry to go up the mountain, and carefully observed the mountain road in front of him and the surrounding environment. It's also a little strange to say, this place looks like a small hill from the outside, but at this time the mountain road in front of you, there are green trees and bamboos on both sides, you can't see the end at a glance, but it is long and long, and the twists and turns seem to be very deep, Lin Fengjin found that after careful observation, this mountain road was originally built out of good bluestone, and at this time the surface is very clean, except for the fallen leaves, it is almost spotless.

After hesitating for a while, Lin Fengjin thought to himself that Lao Tzu was also a student of Donglin Academy, and even if the mountain chief wanted to make some mysteries, he would definitely not be mad and want to let his students be injured and disabled. So he still stepped on this mountain road one step at a time.

In the first step, Lin Fengjin settled very steadily, and he was also very cautious, but he didn't find any abnormalities, and after taking a few more steps, he didn't feel how dangerous it was, so he simply took a step forward, and after walking out of a mile, Lin Fengjin's face changed suddenly!

Because he realized at this time that every time he stepped on one more step, then the next step would have to use a greater force to step on the next step, and the incremental pattern of this force was linear, so when Lin Fengjin started to step out of the first step, the amount of force he needed to increase was very small. However, when he walked out of the land for a mile, he realized that to step on the staircase in front of him, the amount of force required to increase was almost 20% of the previous step!

"Can't go any further. Lin Fengjin looked up and looked ahead, the mountain road was crooked, quiet, but the road ahead was completely endless, and it was hidden in the depths of the clouds.

"I'll be exhausted if I take another hundred steps at most, but there's no end in sight to this ghost road."

At this time, Lin Fengjin suddenly remembered Hai Gongzi's words again:

"I'll walk here with you, all the way to the front, and at the end is the retreat of the mountain chief in seclusion, if you can go there, it will naturally have your benefits. ”

"Keep going ahead and retreat to Silu?" Lin Fengjin groaned, looked at the surrounding environment, and found that there was no longer the babbling mountain stream near the mountain road, so he turned around and walked back, and then came to the starting point of the mountain road again.

It was still very quiet here, the leaves were dancing in the wind, the clear stream was murmuring, Lin Feng nodded and said:

"If that's the case, then it's likely that the truth is here. ”

He removed his shoes and socks in his hand, and then stepped into the mountain stream next to him, stepping on the water and going upstream, when he walked out of about half a mile, the mountain stream parted ways with the mountain road, Lin Fengjin looked at the mountain road very calmly, and then stepped on the clear stream and went up, it didn't take long to approach the top of the mountain, and saw a very solemn and atmospheric building, close to see, the plaque on it was written "retreat to the house" three words.

Lin Fengjin didn't dare to slack off at this time, after all, the person he had to face was the mountain chief of Donglin Academy, first closed his eyes and cleansed his heart, and then sorted out his dress and demeanor, and improved his state to the best, and then walked to the door of the retreat, and was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, when a calm voice came from inside:

"Just push the door in. ”

Lin Fengjin pushed open the door of the house, and then walked into the main hall, and was shocked head-on, because the couplet in the main hall, eight characters, whether it is calligraphy or the content of the couplet, is domineering, to put it bluntly, even others can't learn it!

Is there anyone who can guess these eight words? Very famous. (To be continued......)
